Alright! I’ve gotten on this “absolute truth” kick, again. I’m amazed at the number of people that perceive truth as relative rather than absolute. I struggle with comprehending a “thought process” that excludes absolute and objective truth. While it may appear to be personally palatable to define truth subjectively or situationally, it creates greater personal angst when truth is constantly in a state of flux or being redefined. Subjective truth constructs more constraints whereas absolute truth or objective truth produces greater freedom. Absolute truth defines the boundaries and there within is total freedom. In subjective truth you must renegotiate boundaries creating greater instability and less true freedom.
